SAN FRANCISCO – Mark Davis can’t avoid a rope line of Raiders fans. Never, ever does. Maybe more than any other owner, he’s a man of the people. The man often flies Southwest over first class or the occasional private jet.
So, when fans could be heard protesting a “Stay in Oakland” movement outside the Ritz-Carlton, it was only natural the Raiders owner would cut off a press session to be with the fans.
He has done so the Saturday of every recent NFL draft, when Raiders fans hold a rally outside the team’s Alameda practice facility.
